This game used to be my absolute favorite game but now that I am older, there is no challenge to it and I grow bored of it now very easily. I recommend this game for younger people (12 years of age and younger). I still have fun with it every now and then but I do the same thing over and over. This game allows you to create your own horses by breeding a filly (girl) and a colt (boy). This is great for kids because you get to name the horse and pick what color mask it should wear. It lets them own their own horse without the money breaking cost of a real horse. :)
So my 8yr old brother and I(I at the time,17 YRS) would play this game from about 8pm in the night, he would fall asleep, wake up, and then find me at 8am still playing this game. It was not until having this game for about 5-6 months, that I realized how AWESOME it really is! In this horse racing game, you learn soooooooooo much about real horse racing. Vs modes and career modes are SUPERB! It is depicted so closely to real life racing, esp. career mode. It may seem difficult at first, but give it a try a few more times, read the manual if you wish. This seriously may be my favorite game of ALL TIME...and let me tell you, I have played the first game boy, first nintendo, super nintendo, sega,N64, sega dreamcast, ps1, xbox, ps2,ps3, wii and xbox 360-basically almost every gaming console!!! I just had to find this game again after it got destroyed. So basically I'm almost 21 now, and still cannot forget the impact this game had left on me 3-4 yrs ago. I REALLY recommend getting this game!!! ESP. for the horse racing enthusiast!(which surprisingly, I was not). It is a must have! (damn, longest review I've ever written for a product in my entire life!) I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!=DRead full review
Been playing it since 1999 , career mode is awesome , all the hidden secrets , tracks , horses , awards etc. you can unlock is unbelievable , too bad the 2001 version on the ps2 lost a bit of the spirit of the first game .

Younger, less experienced players might get a kick out of this game. As for the older more experianced players it is repetative and can take a while to load. I suggest this game for those who have never played a horse racing game before, because you will quickly grow bored of the lack of challenge.
